Pevsner's Hertfordshire (with Bridget Cherry, 1977) says:

BUSHEY. TILEHURST, Grange Road. 1903 by Voysey. This ... and also MYHOLME, No 170 Merry Hill Road, of 1904, altered by him in 1911, are characteristic examples of Voysey's work on the least ambitious suburban scale (very suitable for imitation by anonymous builders). The style has had the most undesirable consequences all over Britain. Yet Voysey's own houses are happily designed, unpretentious, unrhetorical, and fitting. Note the batter of the buttresses, the roughcast, the horizontal windows, and the irregular stone surrounds.
